March 12, 1951 Edith and James Jackson gave birth to the cutest baby ever!  I've always said to you that you must have had different parents. (LOL) When we were little I can still remember how you babysat us and got in trouble for our wrong doings.  You always protected us against mom's belts.  The only child in our family to go and actually finish college, we were so proud.  You were always so strong, strong minded and strong willed yet loving and kind to everyone.  I had fun growing up with you as my big sister.  I remember when I got pregnant with Je-von I came to you first not mom.  As usual you gave me your good advice then and into my adulthood. You were more than just a daughter sis, you meant so much to me.  You were the only one I would turn to for guidance.  I look at your pictures and your video at moms party in Brooklyn, you were so happy. I needed you to stay with me for always.  I'm selfish for that but thats real.  Everyone misses you sis.  I miss hearing you end our calls by saying, "okay sis I love you, nite-nite".  Until I see you again my sweet sister there will always be an empty spot in my heart.
